Walt Disney World Wait Times for Fourth Week of April 2025

Well, Easter Week has come and gone, but not everyone left Walt Disney World immediately.

Nobody’s ever in a rush to leave the Most Magical Place on Earth.

So, we’ve got a bit of intrigue in Walt Disney World wait times for the fourth week of April 2025. How were the crowds?

Disney’s Animal Kingdom

We haven’t quite entered this park’s pure state of flux yet.

Many of us remember what Animal Kingdom was like during that interminable timeframe when we awaited Avatar.

DINOSAUR

Pandora – The World of Avatar proved well worth the wait, but it was a frustrating few years.

With DinoLand USA still open, the walls may be up. It’s nowhere near the same yet, though.

So, I expect a relatively normal summer and, really, the entirety of 2025.

For now, here are the average wait times at Animal Kingdom last week:

• Avatar Flight of Passage – 84 minutes, down 6
• Na’vi River Journey – 59 minutes, down 10
• Kali River Rapids – 50 minutes, down 12
• Kilimanjaro Safaris – 44 minutes, down 15
• Expedition Everest – 42 minutes, down 7
• Adventurers Outpost – 34 minutes, down 5
• DINOSAUR – 34 minutes, down 9

Overall, guests waited for an average of 49 minutes per attraction, which is on the high side for this park as a rule.

Still, that’s ten minutes less than last time. Where did everybody go? I guess folks couldn’t stick around after Easter this time. Sad.

Disney’s Hollywood Studios

Hollywood Studios

Of course, I’m being a bit silly here. That’s merely the data from one park.

Also, as we all know, Animal Kingdom offers the fewest ride-based attractions at the moment.

So, the wait times there don’t always align with the other parks.

Was Hollywood Studios different than Animal Kingdom this time? Let’s find out!

• Slinky Dog Dash – 78 minutes, down 13
• Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith – 62 minutes, down 8
• Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance – 61 minutes, down 31

Overall, Hollywood Studios guests stood in line for an average of 39 minutes per attraction.

As you can probably tell from the data, that’s a substantial drop of seven minutes from last time.

Also, I implore you to watch Muppet*Vision 3D while you still can. You’re really gonna miss it when it’s gone.

So, you’ve got about six weeks to appreciate its brilliance before Disney closes it, possibly forever.

EPCOT

Cosmic Rewind

Thus far, crowds appear much lower during the Post-Easter period. Was that the case at EPCOT as well?

So, we definitely witnessed a significant drop in park traffic in the aftermath of the Easter holiday.

Now, we’re entering a temporary dead period at the parks.

Historically, the end of April and most of May are the slow season. Will that trend hold in 2025? Stay tuned!
